In greater numbers than ever, children hollowed up by hunger are overwhelming the Patient’s Friends Hospital, the main emergency center for malnourished kids in northern Gaza. The deaths last weekend also marked a change: the first seen by the center in children who had no preexisting…

While 2024 was the hottest year on record, the majority of climate scientists agree that extreme heat events like heat waves and heat domes will continue to increase in frequency, duration and intensity. Which is why this summer is hot. Too hot. Skin-scorching, makeup-melting, sweat-in-places-you-didn’t-know-you-could-sweat hot. And all this heat could be costing drivers more money.  Climate and weather conditions have historically been a part of insurers’ risk calculations.

Connecticut’s Democratic elected officials have been crisscrossing the state to warn about the impacts of Medicaid cuts in President Donald J. Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill.” The measure, along with other federal policy changes, will also impact people who purchase plans through state-based exchanges established by the Affordable Care Act. These plans are often referred to as “qualified health plans,” “marketplace plans” or “ACA plans.” Roughly 150,000 residents purchase health insurance through Access Health CT, the state’s health insurance exchange. Many of the cuts to the exchange plans will happen before the widely-discussed changes to Medicaid, with some changes to the ACA plans going…
